Matrixstream MX1020HD preps for Middle East launch

Matrixstream is taking its MX1020HD 1080p IPTV set-top box to the Middle East looking forward to high profile installations in some of the new real estate, after launches in the U.S., Canada and other countries. MyTVPal.com has continued to release 1080p streaming downloads, but the HD IPTV market has gotten a lot more crowded than it was in 2006. Matrixstream claims its XMS streaming technology is the best at adjusting to available bandwidth, it'll have to be to fend off Apple and Microsoft.
